Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Anthony Edwards has taken aim at Aaron Gordon after the latest defeat against the Denver Nuggets.
The Nuggets are hitting some good form as they have won the last two games of the Western Conference semi-finals.

They produced a dominant victory over the Timberwolves and it led to Edwards showing his frustration about Gordon after the match.
The Nuggets lost the first two games of the series against the Wolves but they have since fought back to make it 2-2. The second win over the Wolves was by 115-107 and Gordon was a key part of it, playing 41 minutes, getting 27 points and only missing one shot from the field.
He went 11-12 from the field and 2-2 from beyond the dee. Gordon finished the night shooting an incredible 91.7 percent clip and obviously, going a perfect 100 percent from long range.
The plaudits don’t stop there, as he also got seven rebounds, six assists, two blocks and one steal.
Edwards’ annoyance with Gordon
After the game, Edwards was asked about the contest and he said: “I’m sick of Aaron Gordon.”
Rudy Gobert was also exasperated by how well Gordon played, saying: “A lot of them were contested so if Gordon turns into Kobe Bryant, we just gotta live with that.”
Edwards certainly had a good game of his own but the rest of his teammates weren’t able to help him deliver a victory. He managed to get 44 points of his own, but no one else on the Timberwolves got past the 20-point mark.
Karl-Anthony Towns had 13 points on 5-18 shooting, Jaden McDaniels and Rudy Gobert had 11 points each and Mike Conley was the second-leading scorer for Minnesota with 15 points, shooting 5-12 from the field.
